Location: India | You can participate in this mock test compiled by Branko Ceranic from puzzles in the Serbian Championship for 48 hours, anytime from 20:00 IST on 26th Mar to 20:00 IST on 28th Mar (from 14:30 GMT on 26th Mar to 14:30 GMT on 28th Mar). Branko has suggested a time of 120 minutes for the test, however we will have the test in one round of 180 minutes. You can take the mock any time during this period at one stretch.
Your time for the mock will start after you click on "Start Mock" and you will have exactly 180 minutes to solve the mock and submit your answers.
A timer will be displayed on the answer page, to show how much time you have remaining.
Also, every time you click on 'Submit' (for any puzzle) it will show how much time you have remaining.
Show cells to fill will be activated 1 hour after you start the test |

180 mins............looks like puzzles are going to be really tough......eagerly waiting for Friday night.
Neeraj, it is not correct to assume that puzzles will be tough. Branko had decided 2 hours, but we added a .5X factor so that more players can solve. It has got nothing to do with the difficulty, it is as per our discussion in the other thread. |

Location: India | Hi Neeraj,
In Big Bands the numbers cannot be interchanged.... but they can be reversed... in the example you have a band 1614821
This can be used linearly as given or in the reverse order of 1284161.
hope this clarifies |

Location: India | Neeraj, I don't have the solutions. But Branko has and he will post the solution soon.
Here is another example I created a while back. Attaching the same with solution.

3 hours? in one single round? :(
I think I'll not found 3 hours this weekend to do this mocktest...
Or perhaps I'll try to solve the most grids I can during 2 hours...

Fred, Branko suggested that the mock should be of 2 hours. So, you should be able to solve most (all) grid in 2 hours.
We've made it 3 hours so that many people get a chance to solve more puzzles.
Hope you enjoy the mock as much as you did in other mocks.

Location: Serbia | Puzzles are from Serbian Sudoku Championship 2010.
Relay puzzles are one round from Champ - 45 minutes round
Mix puzzles are from final set from Champ. In the final were 16 puzzles in 2 hours. I think that 75 minutes is correct time for chosen puzzles.
